63f8c480c5 config: hide more config options when a backend
Hide the prompts for some behavioral options, for which the upper-layer build
system is responsible for:
- parallel jobs and maximum load
- use pipes
- use custom shell

88d3a95eca global: do not offer the renice option, let's the user handle that
It's broken anyway. Eg.:
- user is already niced at 10
- user configures to renice at 5
- breaks because user is not allowed to 'boost' his/her nice value

Bette let the user handle the renice with:
  nice -XX ct-ng 'action'

6370afc4f4 config: make CONFIG_SHELL default to bash
Some components (eg. GMP) will fail to correctly build if
the CONFIG_SHELL is not bash (eg. ash or dash). So make bash
the default CONFIG_SHELL.

Keep ash as a possible selection, as future versions of those
currently /broken/ tools may come fixed wrt to CONFIG_SHELL
being POSIX-ly compliant.

70f87b8969 [config] Warn againt using ash as CONFIG_SHELL
It apears that more and more ./configure scripts and Makefiles
make use of non-POSIXly correct shell constructs, that don't
work with ash.

For now, just warn the user against using ash, but keep it as
an option in case newer versions of the /broken/ components
come fixed, and we can again use ash, as it is in some cases
really faster than bash.

27cdd4367c [config] Allow user to specify custom CONFIG_SHELL
In case the shell the user wants to use as CONFIG_SHELL is located in a
weird place (eg. /opt/bash/bin/bash), or is weirdly named (eg. bash-4),
let the user enter the patch to the shell.

d6195c6483 [config] Add bash as a possible CONFIG_SHELL
On some systems and/or for some components, it may be necessary to
explicitly use bash as the shell used by ./configure and Makefiles.

a08142a02a [config] Change the way to select the CONFIG_SHELL
Transform the single boolean option to a 'choice' selection
with two options: "sh" and "ash".

This is needed to later add "bash" as override.
